Gift Idea at 30% Off!!!

I went to OC Nail Art yesterday to place an order. It donned on me that with Christmas coming up, there are going to be a lot of people in search of the perfect stocking stuffer. Last year my gift giving idea was to personalize... well, anything... for that special someone with embroidery from Artic Fox Designs. I had my Bible cover embroidered and it was AMAZING... you can check it out HERE.

This year my gift idea is (you'll never guess) REUSABLE NAIL ART KITS! Now before I go plugging this WONDERFUL product, I just want to say that Konad, the maker of these awesome kits, does not pay me. The retailer OC Nail Art does not pay me either, but for now there is a 30% discount to anyone and everyone who uses the discount code "MENTAL" at checkout, so really YOU ALL are getting paid for my blog post today.... hahahahahahahha! Right now might be a great time to pick up a nail art kit or two for a special someone.

Ok, now the plug... just cuz I love them! Note: the prices that follow get even better with that 30% discount!!! For those who are just starting with nail art and want to start slow, my recommendation is the "S" kit. I started with this kit and fell in love with the ease of application. This starter kit comes with everything you need and at less than $20, it is super affordable.... especially since all the kits are reusable nail art that you DON'T throw away. You will use this over and over choosing different colors, if you like, each time because you can also use regular nail polish. Here's my post on the different types of products that you can use with the Konad Nail Art system: Special Nail Polish vs. Regular. I say, buy the "S" kit and one special polish to bump your purchase over the $20 mark and take advantage of OC Nail Art's free shipping with purchases over $20!

Another great value, and the kit I wish I WOULD have started with is the "C" kit. It comes with a couple different special nail polishes and my favorite nail art designs. I ended up buying these designs after the fact, but after buying them, I realized quickly that I wish I would have started there. This kit is another one that contains everything you need and qualifies for free shipping.... we ALL love that! This one is under $30.

Now.... if you want something a little more significant than a stocking stuffer for someone who LOVES the nail art and throws away A LOT of money every year on the typical "use once" nail art decals and stickers, I recommend the "G" kit. It is just under $100, qualifies for the free shipping and comes with A TON of images and special polishes (including my favorite staples, black and white). Whoever receives this kit will not have to spend another penny on nail art designs.

Ok, so the above kits are MY recommendations. There are many more kits to choose from at OC Nail Art. In fact, my dream kit is on sale RIGHT NOW!!! It's the BIG DOG and contains EVERYTHING. For someone like me who is addicted to nail art or for an actual salon professional, the Professional Salon Kit is DEFINITELY the way to go.

Oh! One last comment/recommendation. You can search individual image discs HERE! The reason that is such a good option is because this system isn't just great for nail art... it's also a handy craft tool as well. It's that embellishment that can turn a $1.00 glass bowl into a 1 minute gift. I will be posting this Christmas gift I just made using my Konad nail art kit. SO CUTE... stay tuned.

Welp, that's pretty much it for this year's gift idea. If you guys DO give it a try, or get one for that special someone... let me know what you think! :)

Past 7 Days....

Maple Syrup vs. Honey

I did a post a while back about the nutritious sweetener for the lemonade on the Master Cleanse: maple syrup ! In fact, for quite some time now it has been my only sweetner (well, that and agave nectar... YUM!). But why maple syrup... isn't honey the magical sweetener? First, let's consider where both come from. One comes from a tree and the other comes from flowers, but is predigested and then regurgitated by a bee. Can you guess which is which??? hahahaha ! Really though, just the idea that an insect's already digested nectar from a flower lends to the idea that the nectar is already devoid of nutrients when it's vomited back up. Isn't that the whole point of digestion? To pull the nutrients from whatever it is you have ingested. So is it safe to say that honey is a bi product ? Or even a waste material? I would certainly call MY vomit a waste material... what about you? But beyond the gross visual I now have in my head of honey, I also have a real concern about ...

Curse You 21 Jumpstreet and Heed My Warnings

Ok, so I rented it and I loved it!!!  I hate that I loved it!  And I hate myself even more that I'm running out to buy it!  But watching this HILARIOUS movie remake reminds me of all the broken dreams and unanswered questions I was left with as a teenage girl while I manipulated and maneuvered my black and white TV antennae unavailingly to give me a clear picture of the hit Fox TV show. Back in 1987, Fox was a new station and did not come through very clearly on that trusty black and white and most nights it was as if my beloved Penhall was communicating to me from the other side through all that white noise.  Yes, I was in love with Officer Doug James Penhall and that teenage ritual would literally foreshadow the pain and heartbreak I would endure watching the end of 21 Jump Street the movie... and I'm STILL compelled to buy it.  If you haven't seen the movie yet, this post might come as a shock and should definitely be considered a spoiler for anyone readin...

I Love Being Hit By Mack Trucks

Ok, so my friend Cindy came over to play with all her new Stampin Up goodies.  When I first looked at the Yippee Skippee stamp set I fell in love with all but ONE stamp, "Never Underestimate The Power of Two"????  What the heck does that mean???  Is that supposed to be a "couples" stamp, like for Valentines or weddings or something?  I don't know, but when you apply that sentiment to alcohol, well..... Isn't it JUST so obvious how perfect this sentiment is?!?  I mean, it was like being hit with a Mack truck!  LOL!  Cindy and I were SOOOO proud of ourselves!!!  This card is AWESOME!!!!  We added the "or three" to the end realizing that it is just funnier that way!!!  We used a TON of Stampin Up goodies for this card: Inks and Papers - Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Basic Black, Whisper White Stamp Sets - Yippee Skippy, Happy Hour Tools - Big Shot, Banners Framelits, Paper Piercer, Paper Piercing Mat Additional - Li...
